Therefore, we are waiting for positive news.
Plot
Florence. 16th century. Arte from childhood received drawing lessons provided by the etiquette program. But no one thought that for a girl this would not be just a favorite lesson. Arte is immersed in the world of painting, so endless and beautiful that all her thoughts are filled only with daily sketches. The father encouraged his daughter’s passion, but after his death, everything changed. Mother was adamant – the girl should get married, and not dream of art. After the mother burns all the found works of Arte, the girl decides to take a step, adult and irrevocable.
